Proverbs 22:11-15

One who loves purity of heart And whose speech is gracious, the king is his friend.

The eyes of the Lord protect knowledge, But He overthrows the words of the treacherous person.

The lazy one says, “There is a lion outside; I will be killed in the streets!”

The mouth of an adulteress is a deep pit; He who is cursed of the Lord will fall into it.

Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child; The rod of discipline will remove it far from him.
